Seriously.

Throw on some baby heels and you've got your regular 6th month old street walker.

Because it's never too early to make them feel inadequate.

Here are some other things that annoy me about baby stuff:

You can't get boy stuff that's not blue.
You can't get girl stuff that's not pink.
You can't get boy stuff that doesn't have dogs, dinosaurs, trucks, or trains on it.
You can't get girl stuff that doesn't have cats, flowers, ponies, or hearts on it.

I mean, yes, you can try to dress a girl in boys' things and vice versa to combat it all, but can't we just have some affordable lines of unisex chidlren's clothes that come in OTHER colors and without genderized chevrons emblazened on them?

Drives me crazy.

Who cares what they're wearing once you've sent them down into the mines?

The "London Flower" model comes with "A delicate row of Vanilla Fleurs with stitching details in Pink Strawberry. Sheer Ribbon Underlay and Bow (w/ Faux Pearl Drop in center) in Light Pink."

Is it just me, or do those babies actually look uglier with teh baby hair-extensions?

And from the testimonials:

Very cute and apropos in our image-conscious modern world.

*barf*
My kids were routinely mistaken for the opposite sex as babies--hair/no hair, blue/pink/whatever, flowers&hearts/dinosaurs&trucks--and I could never bring myself to give a shit. I just didn't matter.
